Quick Answer

Lipo-Flavonoid Plus is a dietary supplement developed to remediate tinnitus, the perception of sound in the head or ears when no sound is present. The supplement improves circulation in the ear, reducing susceptibility to tinnitus and reducing the intensity of tinnitus when it occurs, according to the company website.

Eriodictyol glycoside, a lemon citrus bioflavonoid, is an ingredient in Lipo-Flavonoid Plus along with vitamins B6, B12 and C, niacin, riboflavin, thiamine, choline, inositol and pantothenic acid. The company website states that while some of the ingredients have produced favorable results in combating tinnitus on their own, the combination of ingredients provides better relief more consistently. Although separate preliminary tests involving eriodictyol glycoside and vitamin B6 showed promising results in improving Meniere's disease, Consumer Lab notes that no reliable studies have been conducted to prove or disprove the efficacy of Lipo-Flavonoid Plus or any of its ingredients with regard to tinnitus or ear health.

The Lipo-Flavonoid Plus website recommends taking two Lipo-Flavonoid Plus caplets three times per day after meals for 60 days or until improvement occurs. At that point, the website suggests taking one caplet three times daily following meals for maintenance. If tinnitus symptoms do not improve within 60 days when Lipo-Flavonoid Plus is used as directed, consumers can mail their cash register receipt and package UPC code along with their name and address to the company to obtain a refund.
